Rolls-royce Ghost: Short Circuit May Occur

Rolls-Royce Ghost Recall Summary Rolls-Royce is recalling 170 Ghost vehicles because moisture can enter the additional coolant pump for the exhaust turbocharger, potentially causing a short circuit. If this occurs, the pump may overheat, leading to melted connections and in rare cases a fire in the engine compartment, though drivers will receive a warning message first. The fix involves replacing the affected coolant pump.

Vehicles: ROLLS-ROYCE GHOST. Units affected: 170
Reason
Due to the ingress of moisture it is possible that a short circuit can occur in the additional coolant pump for the exhaust turbocharger. The driver will be informed of the issue by a warning message on the display in the instrument panel. If not addressed it is possible for further heat build up in the pump which may cause the plug connection and housing to melt and in extreme cases a localised fire in the engine compartment or vehicle. Remedy: Recall all affected vehicles for the replacement of the additional coolant pump.
